Be In To Win An Extraordinary Prize!!

Here's a great prize to be won here on Holes in My Soles!
I'll make the winner a new pair of Extraordinary Shoes as worn by me on Tourism Western Australia's recent promotion, to be won by another lucky man .
These shoes have been tried and tested, dunked in Tunnel Creek,climbed Mitchell Falls,walked the red dirt of the Gibb River Road, and kicked the cr*p out of salwater crocs that got too close at Windjana Gorge.Actually they didn't do that but might have had to if they'd got too close.
Anyway, they held together, lasted the distance,kept me comfortable,with just the slightest hint of a blister after 10 days solid wear throughout our adventure.
So the idea is to make some lucky winner another pair.And you can win a pair.A new pair!
How-
On the right hand side , scroll down to 'Followers', click on the 'Follow 'Icon and you'll be guided through a quick process.You may need to create a Google account.
A short explanation is here-register to follow?
By registering on this site I get to know I've got readers.Wouldn't be the same if I'm just chatting to myself all the time.So to make it worthwhile, these Extraordinary shoes will be won by a draw from all my first 100 registered Followers!
Now why getting my readership up is so important is this-this site is 'Monetized'.

1.Spreading the word around your contacts.
2.Linking to this site.
3.Checking out the adverts, and if you want to book an adventure tour with Gap Adventures,click through from their advert on this page and I get a few dollars.

And when this site begins to earn a few dollars every month, ALL those earnings (less any tax) will be donated back to wildlife conservation.Now take the time to have a browse over this site, The Sheldrick Wildlife Trust based near Nairobi, Kenya.http://www.sheldrickwildlifetrust.org/
Read about the wonderful work these people are doing in rescuing baby elephants, often found suckling on their 3 day dead mothers teats after poachers slaughtered her just for her small tusks!Yes, you and I can work together to raise the few dollars neccessary to adopt 1 or more of those baby elephants and help in their protection work.
